You might have been told not to drink the tap water here in Bali unless you want to suffer the dreaded wrath of “Bali belly”. Well, it’s true, the tap water here is not safe to drink. Unfortunately for some people it’s the only option they have.
Terra Water works directly to implement programs and activities with local communities and groups to come up with ways of providing safe drinking water to villages in Bali. By distributing water filters to rural communities and providing the training they need to get started filtering their own water, they are setting them up for generations to come.
We work directly with Terra that for every ceramic filter sold in store, Terra donate a basic filter to a Bali Street Mum, as part of their work with the Bali Street Mums project. Check out the Terra Water filter options here.
We are proud to partner with Terra Water again on their latest project - The Bali ABC’s Book! What makes the book so special? Well, with every purchase of the book, Terra will send one filter to a vulnerable family in need.
Bali ABC’s is a book written by Declan Robinson showing different illustrations celebrating life in Bali with fun alphabetical rhymes. Declan Robinson, a student at Bali Island School wants to give back to the island of Bali and support the people. “I was honoured to be able to work together with such a terrific home-grown artist to depict local Balinese culture and life to create this book in support of the wonderful Terra team to give back to the island of the Gods!” said Robinson.
“This ABC’s book is intended for all ages. With amazing illustrations by Made Griyawan, a fine practitioner from Batuan, Ubud and a humble language that is easy to understand, this book is very suitable to be read to preschool kids. For those of you who have just come to visit or decide to stay in Bali, you need to understand the Indonesian language we used. This book contains Indonesian words that are often used so you can use them in daily conversations.” - Terra Water.
You can now purchase the ABC’s book directly here at Alive Wholefoods - For every book sold, Terra will donate one filter to a vulnerable family here in Bali. The book is only 125k with all proceeds going directly to Terra Water.
Pop in store with your reusable drink bottle and fill up for free - the taste of the water is intriguing, it's softer than your regular bottled water bought in shops.
